حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الدَّبَرِيُّ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّزَّاقِ، عَنْ مَعْمَرٍ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، وَحَمَّادٍ، قَالَا: سَمِعْتَهُمْ يَقُولُونَ: سَمِعَهُمَا يَقُولَانِ: كَانَ ابْنُ مَسْعُودٍ يَقُولُ: «إِنَّ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ كَانَ حِصْنًا حَصِينًا لِلْإِسْلَامِ يُدْخَلُ فِي الْإِسْلَامِ، وَلَا يُخْرَجُ مِنْهُ، فَلَمَّا مَاتَ عُمَرُ، انْثَلَمَ مِنَ الْحِصْنِ ثُلْمَةُ فَهُوَ يَخْرُجُ مِنْهُ، وَلَا يَدْخُلُ فِيهِ، وَكَانَ إِذَا سَلَكَ طَرِيقًا، وَجَدْنَاهُ سَهْلًا، فَإِذَا ذُكِرَ الصَّالِحُونَ فَحَيَّ هَلَا بِعُمَرَ، كَانَ فَصْلَ مَا بَيْنَ الزِّيَادَةِ وَالنُّقْصَانِ، وَاللهِ لَوَدِدْتُ أَنِّي أَخْدُمُ مِثْلَهُ حَتَّى أَمُوتَ»
Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) used to say: "Sayyiduna Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) was a strong fortress for Islam; people would enter Islam and not leave it. Then when Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) died, a breach appeared in the fortress, and now people leave it and do not enter it. Whenever he took a path, we found it easy. When the righteous are mentioned, then be sure to mention Umar (may Allah be pleased with him). He was the dividing line between increase and decrease (in Islam). By Allah, I wish that I could serve someone like him until I die."
